- As of March 22, 2018, Wave 0000000 was added as an easter egg, it has a chance if occurring after Wave 40 or at the start of the game. It contains multiple zombies that are not encountered during waves 1 - 40. It also contains a variant of Jack, which the final boss of the Halloween 2017 event. It is called Expired Jack, serving as additional and stronger Guardians that disrupt tower using multiple abilities from the Halloween Event.
- On 9/10/18, Wave 34 now moves on even before both teams can kill all the zombies.
